The video is made from mostly Black and White Photographs I took while in Junior High and High School. In a several day effort I colorized them using Artificial Intelligence software, which in 2025 is rather a hit or miss process. Most of the colorized photographs needed further tweaking via Photoshop. From there I did use another Artificial Intelligence animation program to turn some of the photographs into short videos. That also can be a hit or miss process - nothing like watching trombone players fingering their trombones as if they were trumpets. That was the process used to make this fashback to our youth.
I hope you enjoy it.
On a side note, if anyone is in contact with Bill Reindel, he would probably have the largest archive of photographs from high school as he photographed most of our yearbook. It would be interesting to see what he may still have.
Most of the music is composed by Yann Tiersen, except for the last piece which was by Edward Elgar.
